Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fastening element for a curtain airbag and a curtain airbag that can be arranged on a vehicle.
  • curtain airbags are known which are arranged in the roof lining of a vehicle and extend in the case of a crash after their inflation along the sides of the vehicle, so that the persons present in the vehicle are protected from injuries which can arise from the impact of a body part, in particular the head, against the sidewalls or the side windows of the vehicle.
  • the lower corners of this type of curtain airbag in particular the corner arranged at the front in the vehicle, are connected to a fastening element via a cord or string, whereby the airbag, the string and the fastening element form a unit.
  • the fastening element locks into a recess of the vehicle.
  • the fastening elements can, however, be damaged before or during the installation of the curtain airbag, which leads to the entire airbag being no longer usable and having to be thrown away.
  • EP 0 978 421 A1 discloses an airbag of which a part is fastened to a vehicle by screws.
  • DE 201 0118 U1 discloses an airbag system in which a tensioning strap which fixes the gas bag in position is fully looped around the wall of the chamber and fastened to the wall and to the vehicle in such a manner that inflating the chamber causes a displacement of the tensioning strap and a tightening of the tension strap.
  • US 5 588 672 discloses an airbag which is secured by at least three securing points located inside the vehicle adjacent to the window area.
  • this object is achieved by a fastening element with the characterising features of claim 1 and by a curtain airbag with the characterising features of claim 8.
  • a fastening element for a curtain airbag which comprises a locking device and a clamping device, whereby the locking device can be locked in a detachable manner into a suitable place on a vehicle, in particular in a recess on a vehicle part, and whereby in the clamping device a section of the curtain airbag can be arranged in a detachable manner and in a secure position with relation to the fastening element.
  • the fastening element can be arranged or secured in a detachable manner to a section of the curtain airbag, it is possible that the fastening element can be arranged to the curtain airbag just before or during the actual installation in the vehicle. In this way the risk of rupture or destruction of the fastening element during preparatory work before the installation of the curtain airbag is reduced. In addition, this way a faulty fastening element can easily be replaced. Furthermore, there is the advantage that one and the same curtain airbag or the same curtain airbag model can be installed in various vehicles, whereby only the fastening element needs to be exchanged. In addition, there is the advantage that the position of the fastening element in relation to the curtain airbag can be varied according to vehicle type.
  • the clamping device is a recess in a sidewall of the fastening element, in which the airbag section can be arranged and which preferably extends along the entire height of the fastening element. In this way the airbag section can be arranged in the fastening element in a simple manner.
  • the recess forming the clamping device displays an essentially constant width and an essentially cylindrical widening at an intermediate section, in which a thickening in the airbag section can be arranged.
  • the cylindrical widening is preferably essentially hemispherical at the end which is arranged on the inside of the fastening element. This way the secure support of the airbag section in the fastening element can be increased even further.
  • the recess forming the clamping device is furthermore, on the upper side of the fastening element, partly widened to one side, which differs from the side in which the recess is formed. Due to the provision of a widening in the surface of the fastening element, it can be furthermore ensured that the airbag section arrange d in the fastening element is securely held and can be guided in a preferred direction with relation to the fastening element.
  • the locking device is preferably a projection at least partly formed on the fastening element and which projects from at least one side surface of the fastening element and is arranged on the bottom region or in proximity to the bottom side of the fastening element. Due to the provision of a projection on the fastening element, the fastening element can be securely locked into a recess in a vehicle part.
  • the locking device furthermore preferably comprises a border which projects essentially peripherally from the side of the fastening element and which is arranged in the upper region or in proximity to the upper side of the fastening element. Due to the provision of the ledge-type border it is possible that the fastening element is held securely in a recess in the vehicle part and falling or sliding of the fastening element into the inside of the vehicle part can be avoided.
  • the material out of which the fastening element is manufactured preferably displays a high rigidity. In this way it is ensured that the fastening element on the one hand can securely hold the curtain airbag section even under a high load and on the other hand be securely held in the recess in the vehicle part.
  • a curtain airbag which can be arranged in a vehicle is furthermore provided, whereby the curtain airbag comprises a fastening element, as described above, and an airbag, whereby the airbag comprises a section which can be arranged in the fastening element in a detachable manner and in a secure position with relation to the fastening element.
  • the section of the airbag is preferably oblong and/or manufactured from the same material as the airbag.
  • the section of the airbag can be a cord which can be securely connected to the airbag, preferably by means of sewing.
  • the section displays at its free end a thickening.
  • the thickening is preferably essentially spherical in shape. Due to the provision of a spherical shape for the thickening, it can be ensured that the section is held in the preferably cylindrical recess in the fastening element in an even more secure manner.
  • the thickening preferably consists of a knot in the section. Due to the provision of a knot, a thickening in the section of the airbag can be designed in a simple manner.
  • the thickening can furthermore preferably consist of a material thickening.
  • the section can be arranged in the fastening element by means of clamping or fixing.
  • Fig. 1 shows a top view of a curtain airbag 2 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • the curtain airbag 2 comprises an airbag 4, an oblong section 6 and a fastening element 10 clamped in a detachable manner to the oblong section 6.
  • the oblong section 6 of the curtain airbag 4 displays a thickening 8 in the region of its free end.
  • the curtain airbag 2 is preferably arranged in the roof lining of a vehicle along the side.
  • the fastening element 10 locks into a suitable place of the vehicle. In the event of a crash, the curtain airbag 2 is released and emerges from the roof lining of the vehicle.
  • the curtain airbag 2 can be securely held along the side of the vehicle, whereby the tensioning device exerts a force, preferably a pulling force, onto the unfolding airbag 4 over the oblong section 6, which is clamped in the fastening element.
  • Fig. 2 shows a perspective view
  • Fig. 3 a sectional view along line 3-3 (longitudinal section) of Fig. 2
  • Fig. 4 shows a sectional view along line 4-4 (cross section) of Fig. 2 of the fastening element 10 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • the fastening element 10 according to the invention comprises a recess 12 in a sidewall 14, preferably in one of the two longitudinal sidewalls, whereby the recess 12 extends essentially over the entire height of the fastening element 10.
  • the recess 12 is preferably a groove or slot in the sidewall 14 of the fastening element 10. It is also conceivable, however, to design the recess 12 in another suitable shape.
  • the recess 12 extends over merely part of the height of the sidewall 14.
  • the recess 12 is provided to clamp or arrange or fix or fasten the fastening element 10 in a detachable manner on the not represented oblong section 6 of a curtain airbag 2, i.e. for instance in the shape of a cord fastened to the curtain airbag 2.
  • the recess 12 displays a widening 16, which is preferably positioned in a bottom region of the recess 12.
  • the widening 16 has an essentially cylindrical shape and is essentially hemispherical at the end positioned in the middle of the fastening element 10, as can be seen from Fig. 4.
  • the widening 16 essentially has the shape of a borehole, which is perpendicular to the sidewall 14 and does not penetrate the fastening element 10, whereby the end of the borehole which lies inside the fastening element 10 and is preferably essentially hemispherical in shape clamps the thickening 8 of the oblong section 6 in an advantageous and secure manner in the fastening element 10.
  • the recess 12 of the fastening element 10 is preferably widened towards the upper side of the fastening element 10, as is shown by reference number 18.
  • This widening 18 extends preferably in one direction, which differs from the direction, in which the side recess 12 is essentially shaped, preferably perpendicular thereto.
  • the widening 18 is provided to guide or direct the section 6 (not represented) of a curtain airbag 4, clamped in the fastening element 10 in the recess 12 and the widening 16, in a desired direction.
  • the widening 18 prevents an easy sliding out or detachment of the clamped airbag 10 section 4 from the fastening element 10.
  • the fastening element 10 which was clamped to a not represented section 6 of a curtain airbag 4, preferably locks into a recess 20 in a vehicle part 22 (see Figs. 3 and 4).
  • the fastening element 10 comprises at least partly a projection or a catch 24, which extends away from the bottom side of the fastening element 10, preferably essentially to the side.
  • the projection 24 is preferably located on the side, which is opposite the side or direction in which the widening 18 extends.
  • Other suitable possibilities for locking the fastening element 10 in the recess 20 of the vehicle part 22 are, however, also conceivable, as long as the fastening element 10 is securely held in the recess 22.
  • the fastening element 10 comprises a border or ledge 26 projecting essentially peripherally from the side of the fastening element 10, and which prevents the fastening element 10 according to the invention from falling through the recess 20 of the vehicle part 22. It is not necessary, however, that the border 26 be completely peripheral, it would also be conceivable for it to be provided on only two opposite sides of the fastening element 10.
  • the fastening element 10 is, as described above, preferably fastened to the oblong section 6 of the curtain airbag 4.
  • the oblong section 6 of the curtain airbag 4 comprises in a preferred embodiment a thickening 8 at a suitable position (see Fig. 1), in order to be securely held in the fastening element 10, in particular in the widening 16.
  • Figs. 5 and 6 show preferred embodiments of the oblong section, which can be fastened to the airbag 4 of the curtain airbag 4 according to the invention.
  • the thickening 8 is a knot 30 in the oblong section 6.
  • the knot 30 can be designed in a simple manner in the oblong section 6.
  • the position of the thickening 8 in the oblong section 6 can thus be suitably varied, if the curtain airbag 2 according to the invention is to be used in different vehicle models, for instance.
  • the thickening 8 can also be designed as a material thickening 32 in the material of the oblong section 6.
  • the oblong section 6 can preferably be manufactured from the same material as the airbag 4 itself.
